Hello! I just joined the Band of Brothers fandom and my favourite character is Speirs. If you still accepting requests may I ask something for jelous Speirs? Maybe he got jelous his love interest from other company boys?
yes ofc thank you for your request! (i’m going to put it as Hc’s but if you want a one shot or imagine of this just lemme know!!!)
Speirs being Jealous
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
genre! Angst, romance
warnings! a tiny bit of angst, jealousy (ofc)
description! Speirs being jealous, that’s it. That’s the post.
Tumblr media
He’s a pretty cold dude, and it takes a lot to set him off
but he gets so fired up and passionate when it comes to you
so when he gets jealous it’s intense
Very sexy, but intense
I mean, he’s not going to tell you or anything, much less show any expression on his face
I mean, if you’re coming home to him at night, how can he really get mad at you?
but when someone makes a move on you he can get pretty pissy (again, not at you but at the person doing it)
Especially when one of the easy boys try to flirt with you
If he could, he’d beat them up for staring
but he cant
so he’ll resort to giving them a death stare
If he feels the need, he will confront them too. (only if it’s really bad tho)
but he won’t go out of his way to give the other guy problems.
But I think that he will take it serious if you betray his trust and go flirt back with another guy or something
He’ll think about it and put the situation into perspective just to figure his emotions out
but he might just ignore it til it goes away.
IF it doesn’t, he’ll communicate his feelings to you and he will expect you to do the same.
he DOES NOT appreciate it if you dance around the issue, he just wants to get it solved so that you guys don’t have problems.
Tumblr media
Thanks for your request! Hope you enjoyed!! 💗💗

Hey! I'm sorry if you've already written something about this, but what about how the Easy Co. men would react to someone flirting with their significant other/crush? Thanks in advance! Hope you have a lovely day 😊❤
Richard Winters:
Richard is probably the most mature out of this entire situation. He knows at the end of the day you and his and you won’t be looking at anyone else. However, if the person flirting with you refuses to stop then he might just stop them one day by the arm, whispering in a sharp tone as they walk past each other, “If you like your position here, I suggest you start to keep yourself more in line.”
Lewis Nixon:
Nixon finds the situation absolutely hilarious. Please, you think she would want you? Take a hike pal. He doesn’t do anything cause honestly he doesn’t feel threatened. That is, until they start pointing out all the things wrong with Nix. Now you’ve rubbed him the wrong way. He would this person into a room alone and just put it simply, “Alright listen. Y/N loves me and I love them and you are not gonna be the person who ruins it no matter how much you try. So next I hear you running your mouth, I sock you in it.”
Carwood Lipton:
Sweet, sweet man. He says nothing. Partly because he’s a little nervous about it but also because he knows you’re not interested in anyone else. Lip does do little things though, like slip his hand into yours when their around, make sure he always keeps an eye on you when they try to slip in and talk to you, all little stuff. If you ask him about it, he’s a little embarrassed to admit he feels kinda threatened but once you reassure him he gets over it...doesn’t mean he stops his little warnings though.
Ronald Speirs:
WHO would even try this? We all know Speirs know of his rumors and he knows most of them aren’t true. But...if this person thought they were? That was fine with him. He puts on his toughest face when they are around, tries to be or look threatening and man does it work. When this person comes around, Speirs stands up real tall and wraps an arm around your shoulder. “Oh, who are you? I don’t believe I know your name.” If you call him out on it, he’ll totally deny it but he’s blushing.
Harry Welsh:
What a hoot!! Don’t they know you guys are practically married already? Like a minuscule little problem like them would ever cause a problem. He is not worried a single bit, in fact he teases you about it. “Oh look your admirer is coming over.” “Your boyfriend wants to say hi, I’ll go over here and let him believe he has a chance.” He thinks it’s so funny and you try not to laugh and punch his arm playfully. If you ever actually began to feel uncomfortable about this person then he confronts them, but super friendly, like a dad would honestly.
Denver 'Bull' Randleman:
Gets the giggles. In a way, think Ron Swanson. It’s cute, they think they can get in the way of you too. Anytime this person comes around and Bull is with you, he just cocks his head and smiles. Oooooh he can’t wait to see what they come up with. But how can someone not be intimidated by him? That’s because he really is a giant teddy bear. When this person refuses to give up though, the smile drops and he stands up straight. Ah, now he’s a grizzly bear. “Ya know, I’m getting a little tired of you.”
Joe Toye:
Won’t let it go on, not even for a second. The second a flirt happens, that eyebrow gets cocked and he confronts them before they can even THINK about trying it again. He is not someone who let’s things go. pull out the brass knuckles pls. They try one thing and suddenly a hand is curled around the collar of their shirt. “Back off or I knock you so hard you lose the ability to speak.”
George Luz:
He just bullies him honestly. Teases this person to no end. They will not get away with trying to flirt with you. He makes fun of them, calls them out on everything, all in playful manner....maybe. Honestly he doesn’t ever stop until you tell him to. He whines about it but takes what you say to heart. He pulls the person aside and puts it plain and simple, “Alright bud, this has been fun and everything but seriously. Lay off my girl, she’s not interested, and frankly neither am I.”
Eugene Roe:
Pouty boy, he notice it immediately and becomes very quiet. He will never mention it to this person but he does bring it up to you. You reassure him constantly and honestly it takes him a bit to believe you. He had a small thought in the back of his head that you would meet someone more suave and leave him behind. this is getting too sad moving on. You most likely are gonna have to be the one to tell this person off. Now if they don’t get the hint, Eugene is bound to snap. “Alright alright maN BACK OFF.”
Joseph Liebgott:
Not to be cliche....but he’s going in swinging. He’s not even gonna let him get the chance. Anyone even gives you e y e s and he is not letting it happen. “You watch yourself man, I’m not gonna take any shit especially from someone like you.” Easy to say, they will not be trying it again, unless they want another black eye and busted lip. Liebgott doesn’t mind dishing it out once more.
Lynn 'Buck' Compton:
Calls them out on it. They probably do it when he’s not around because man is Buck a firecracker. That also means he has ears, everywhere. He is well liked among the men so when they hear what this person is trying to do, of course it gets back to him. He doesn’t ever talk to them until they approach you yet again. This is his time. He strides up to you, wraps his arm around your waist and pulls you right against his side. “Well I heard you’ve been flirting with my darling but I just had to see it with my own eyes. And now that I have, I can assume it won’t happen again, am I right?”
Donald Malarkey:
Get’s with his boys Skip and Alex about it. They scope out the area. Honestly they seem like twelve year old boys playing ninjas. This person probably gets annoyed enough to stop to be honest. Anytime they try to talk to you, Skip is hiding behind a tree. Alex is peeping from his foxhole. Malarkey is eyeing him from across the way. It’s enough to get this person to back off and also not create a huge deal.
Warren 'Skip' Muck:
Pouty! He is the narrow eyes, pouty lips, glare at this person kinda man. He instantly feels threatened. You wouldn’t leave him of course but the fact that this person is even TRYING? Unacceptable. Period. He marches right up to him, “Hey man, that’s my girlfriend and you’re gonna back off alright? I don’t wanna deal with you and neither does she so just leave her alone...or else.” he baby
Alex Penkala:
Will not leave your side. He might seem like a little puppy but honestly, he doesn’t care. Whatever it takes to make this person get the hint. PDA is usually toned down between you two but when this person comes around? Guess what!! I wanna give you a thousand cheek kisses! Aww, I should hug you from behind and lean my chin on your shoulder the e n t i r e time you talk to this person. Easy to say, they get the picture.
Bill Guarnere:
Scoffs a bit, Hm. This is funny. Their trying to be funny right? They aren’t seriously trying this right? He literally laughs in their face. Now if they try it a g a in then it’s threatening time. Slams them into a wall, no real concern with how loud it is, whose in the room, if they get hurt. “I should break your face right this second but I’m feeling nice so take this as your warning and stay the hell back.”
Darrell 'Shifty' Powers:
He takes a gentle approach. He does confront them but in a friendly sort of way? He honestly doesn’t notice this person flirting with you, he only notices you. Shifty thinks that the guys are just friendly, you would have to be the one to bring it up. Once you do he’s like ‘Aw. Well I’ll take care of it for you.’ He talks them in the sense of like “Hey man, my girlfriend is a little uncomfortable around you and I love her alot so could you leave her alone?” If the dude is sensible, he’ll back off. If not, the boys who are protective over Shifty will take over.
Frank Perconte:
FIGHT HIM FIGHT HIM! He’s an angry little gremlin and he will not stop until he is in their face and spitting and yelling! It’s honestly kinda funny. don’t tell him that though. He would most likely hear about this person from you and storms off, he is gonna tell them off and he’s gonna do it now! This person would back off most likely because of how weirdly uncomfortable he is having this person poke him in the chest and jump up and down like a crazy person. But hey, whatever get’s the point across right?
Edward 'Babe' Heffron:
Babe catches wind of this from Bill and then takes time to watch this guy. He is calculated with it. If this person usually bothers you around a certain time or certain place, he cuts them off one day. “Oh hey guy, where ya headed? Off to meet my girlfriend?” It’s funny to see them freeze up. “Yeah I would quit now if I were you, or I could continue to bother you everywhere you go. Your choice.” And off he goes to meet with you and tell him all about his meeting.
Chuck Grant:
Takes it like a order or mission. Ah just something that has to be done and get out of the way. He pulls them into his office and just lays it all out, “Y/N is a very sweet woman and any man would be foolish to not find her beautiful however I don’t appreciate you vying for her attention. She won;t give it to you so, I think it best you just drop it now. Have a nice day.” It was quick and painless well for him at least, probably the most mature out of everyone.
Floyd Talbert:
So beyond cocky. He calls this person out in the mess hall, probably in front of all of his friends. “So I heard you are interested in my girl. News flash bud, she is smoking. Everyone is interested in her, but the funny thing is..” Then he leans in with a smirk on his face. “She’s only interested in me. She wouldn’t even glance your way. Run along.”
Johnny Martin:
That famous glare? Because 10x more evident. He watches from across the room and always makes sure this person knows he is watching. Now when they acknowledge that he is doing that and they STILL flirt with you? Well now he has to say something and man is it like spitting venom. He doesn’t yell or fight or anything he is just sharp toned and dead serious. “Drop it. I’m not gonna have this conversation again. Knock it off.”
David Webster:
Kinda shrugs it off? He doesn’t see it as a huge problem and probably won’t. If you know you’re not interested in this person and he knows that then just ignore it until this man gets the hint. That’s the way David primarily handles this decision.
Wayne 'Skinny' Sisk:
Smacks your butt everytime this person is in the room. Periodt. Done.
Donald Hoobler:
Confused puppy. This person is flirting with you?? But you’re dating him?? Do they know this?? Why do they not stop?? Kinda just walks over and goes, “Hey man, you’re flirting with my girl, well she’s dating me, if you didn’t know. I would really appreciate if you back off, thanks!” He’s just sweet. He’s too sweet, you c a n ‘ t stop him??

❝That time when Alton More became a thief❞
Tumblr media
A/N: I don’t know if this has been done before, but the other day the idea struck me so randomly and unexpectedly that I had to do something about it! As always, thanks to my other brain cell @hellitwasyoufirstsergeant for cleaning this up from grammar impurities. Ily ♥
Given my last fic being a little (too much) angst, I decided to add some light with my favourites comedians. It’s nonsense, but I hope you enjoy!
(this fic is also on Wattpad and Ao3, come send some love I’d appreciate that quite a lot!)
Words: 945
Warning: comedy trash
Taglist: @hellitwasyoufirstsergeant​ @gutsandgloryhere​ @liebegott​ @vintagelavenderskies​ @punkgeekchic​ @wexhappyxfew​ @easy-company-tradition​
If you fancy being in my taglist please comment this post or send me an ask! I’d love to have you ♥
___________________
"I guess they were Hitler's photo albums, sir. Sure had a lot of pictures of him in it."
Alton More can't believe his ears, honestly. He's being accused for what reason, exactly? He's being accused of stealing by a proper thief. The one and only king of thieves. That's hilarious, really. Silver Stealer, is what the boys had started to call Ronald Speirs, after he'd been seen exiting citizens' houses with arms full of silver.
And he is the thief?
"So you looked at them but didn't take them?" urges Speirs, his eyes piercing Alton like a blade.
"That's right, sir," Alton sighs, hoping this third degree would end soon. He's had enough, and he has a game to attend.
"I don't believe you," Speirs almost yells. Honestly, what does Speirs want from him? Like, what if he did take fucking Hitler's photo albums? The man shot himself in the head, surely he doesn't need them anymore.
If Speirs wants them for himself, hell, finders keepers.
With the corner of his eye, Alton sees someone approaching the door and when he turns to them he sees Talbert, a little bit taken aback: who knows what his friend could be thinking now, entering Speirs' office and seeing him fuming, while Alton is pretty damn calm.
His comrades always envy his nonchalance, often tell him he's a calming presence in that loud bunch that is Easy Company. He's never felt like contradicting them, he likes that reputation.
After some awkward exchanges, Speirs turns his look to him.
"I'll be watching you," he says, his tone severe. Alton was always up to some mischief when he was a child, but not even his old teachers at school dared saying 'I'll be watching you', as if he was some kind of delinquent. "You're dismissed."
About time, Alton thinks while saluting his captain. He turns quickly, glad that that little dramatic scene of Speirs yelling at him for stupid Nazi photo albums is finally over. Dramatic, indeed. With all the things they've been going through this past year, one could think that would be enough drama by then.
"You better not be lying to me," Alton hears from behind.
He smirks, because it's all he can do.
***
"So?" asks Luz once Alton reaches him, Malarkey and Martin outside. "What did he want?"
Alton shrugs, lighting himself a cigarette. "He wanted to know if I took the photo albums we found at Eagle's Nest. The bastard, all he does is stealing from civilians but as soon as he hears one of us taking something more valuable he goes all angry about it."
Luz scoffs. "Somebody needs to tell our captain that out of all the men in Easy, he's the one who could build an entire town with all the things he's taken since we got here," he says, taking the lighter from Alton's hand and using it on his own cigarette. "He thinks himself as a kind of Robin Hood or something."
"Why would he believe you stole those albums, anyway?" Johnny comments, a little bit indignant.
Awkward silence.
Alton having everybody's eyes on him.
"Probably because he did," Donald breaks the silence, shaking his head. When it's clear that nobody had seen that coming, he just shrugs. "What? I was there, I saw."
Alton smiles at his shocked friends, wondering why they're being so surprised. It's not like he stole the entire Eagle's Nest library, he just put a couple of personal Hitler's albums under his uniform and left.
"I'm not believing you're this savage," Luz tells, clapping his hands like he just heard the funniest joke ever. "What are you going to do with the man's pictures, anyway? I bet they'd be great in winter instead of the firewood, keep y'all warm."
A loud laugh echoes in the yard, making some people who are passing by startle. The boys start walking down the street and towards the baseball field; some of them organised a game to welcome Buck Compton back and couldn't stop talking about it since the day before.
"Yeah, Luz, looks like a nice bonfire would fit his preferences."
"Oi, rude," Donald says. "True, though."
Johnny whistles. "Honestly the only thought of having a small piece of that Nazi ass in my house, is beyond my understanding."
"Guys," Alton stops them, dropping the cigarette butt behind him, "I'm not going to either burn or sell those pictures, okay? I took them to keep them as a souvenir of the most hated man in the whole world. End of story."
"Nice," Luz adds.
"Aye, come back to me in ten years and tell me you didn't sell them for hundreds of dollars, dude!" Donald insists, kicking his friend's leg and almost having him tripping on the ground. "Oops, sorry."
Well, we'll see about that, thinks Alton, shaking his head at his chaotic friends. They're almost there when Alton suddenly starts running leaving them behind. "Last one to the field will use Perconte's toothbrush for a week!"
As they all were racing like total idiots, Alton More can't help but think that maybe yes, maybe he will get rid of those albums someday, somehow, but for now they're safe and sound in his current home.
But he doesn't tell them that, they don't need to know. And Speirs doesn't need to be informed about that, either.
What they also don't need to know, is that he's planning on becoming a thief once again, since he has heard some guy from Division came to Austria with a handful of old pictures of Toccoa men.
That is going to be a really great souvenir.

BoB liveblog ep 3
Feelings. I’m having them.
Episode 3: Carentan, but I’m renaming it my heart hurts because this ep is so heavy but also I’m happy cos the best thing possible happens AKA the return of Rich
00:01 THE MUSIC. UGH. WHISKEY STAT.
03:02 These men, I can’t, stop doing this to me Tom Hanks, I feel personally attacked by the pain
03:18 My husband has just informed me I shouldn’t drink while doing these liveblogs because it’s “unhealthy” and “dangerous” and “please stop drinking my whiskey and crying about Gabriel from Supernatural.” First of all, he’s fucking lucky I’m not filing for divorce. Secondly, I need to cope SOMEHOW! “Yes, but I really don’t think alcohol is the best choice as a coping mechanism.” WRONG ALCOHOL IS THE ONLY CHOICE.
03:46 Blithe! Whatcha doing baby?
03:55 Shifty! My angel son is here!
04:21 Real talk, the first thing I ever saw Marc Warren in was this hot as fuck movie with Lee Williams, I’ll google it hang on. OK it’s called ‘No night is too long’, its based off a book. Marc Warren plays this hot professor and Lee Williams is a uni student and the sex scene montage is seared in my memory forever, and there’s a kiss in elevator and it is something else. That’s all I remember when I see Marc. His character in it was super intense and kinda scary, so it’s funny to see him playing Blithe, who is baby.
05:17 Aw Shift, my little angel baby son
05:32 Perco! <3
05:41 Lieb I’ve missed you <3 Luz <3
06:11 Oh Blithe, sweetie.
06:38 Like. He’s functioning. But he’s also not functioning. Same tbh
06:58 Harrrrryyyy <3
07:18 “No talking, no smoking, and no playing grab-fanny with the guy in front of you, Luz!” Iconic.
08:01 “And another thing to remember, boys, flies spread disease! So keep yours closed!” Oh Luz, never change
08:15 Love these few seconds, the fire and the water and the silhouettes
09:11 What do you mean again! How many times have you lost them, Harry?!
09:44 Yay the husbands are here. I’ve missed them. BUT YOU KNOW WHO I MISS THE MOST? RICH. WHERE IS HE?
10:40 You’re the yokel, sweetie
10:50 It’s OK, baby Blithe!
11:02 Look, Dad and his husband are here, you’re safe
11:27 Ugh that scene
12:00 I don’t like this, Dick
12:35 “WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO!”
               “I HAVE NO IDEA!”
               Iconic.
12:45 Move, boys! Listen to Dad!
13:11 BABY NO DON’T TAKE YOUR HELMET OFF!
13:31 Angel son, be careful
13:45 God how do they even know where to shoot?
14:08 Shifty! I said be careful!
14:09 God he’s good
14:23 No baby!
14:40 That was boss, random dude. Tipper?
14:50 Angel son
15:01 Boys. God.
15:40 Was that necessary?
15:41 Well, it led to that boss scene for one, I guess. Iconic.
15:57 Naw, Luz had a feeling <3 And he was right!
16:08 Leave them, baby
16:46 Buck lmao
16:57 Sweetie it’s OK! Oh no, baby ☹
17:10 Roe <3
17:18 Me too, babe
17:38 Ah, Lip! Speirs, come save him!
17:53 Lol poor Lip! Oh no, not the goods!
18:01 I’m happy for you, and Speirs, lmao
18:39 Yeah, you show that outhouse, Tip. It was looking shady as fuck to be fair
18:48 Oh fuck.
18:56 This bit though, the distorted sound… fuck
19:25 Oh Lieb <3
19:35 Lieb, you always try to pretend you don’t care and that you’re badass but you’re not fooling me <3
19:44 Baby, no, wtf are you doing?
19:53 IT’S RICH! OH THANK FUCK! I’VE BEEN SO FUCKING WORRIED. I’M SO PHYSICALLY RELEIEVED LMAO
20:02 My heart
20:27 God
20:34 Where tf did you find that horse?!
20:50 You named him fat boy??
21:02 Oh, honey. I can’t make jokes. It’s a stressful time for us all, me especially, due to the lack of Rich.
21:06 Nix. No.
21:10 Husbands <3
21:14 Baby! Nix go back and help.
21:23 He’s like ugh tf I don’t have time for this! Mood
21:34 This is the first time we hear Roe speak <3
21:43 Listen to him, Dick!
21:45 Hey Buck
22:22 Lord, thank you for Shane’s face.
22:31 Roe’s like wtf you gonna do?
22:55 Baby don’t cry!
23:32 You didn’t let anyone down! It’s OK!
23:43 Oh Dick called him son, I can’t
23:57 Dad healing vibes.
24:11 Dick is legit a Dad now. Is this how the adoption process works?
24:41 Roe is like tf just happened
24:53 RICH! RICH!!!! <3
24:59 Ew
25:05 Don’t touch it, Rich, yucky.
25:21 Oh God. Terrifying.
25:22 Riiiiich, I’ve missed you so much
25:30 Speirs just wants to get back to killing ASAP
25:37 Terrifying. Pretty. But terrifying.
25:41 Mood, Penk
25:56 Riiiich <3 He looks so golden in the sunlight <3
25:58 Paused here a while. His face is beneficial to my health and well-being, OK? Also, third whiskey
26:04 RIIICCH <3 He’s such a wind up. He’s so pretty and golden! Look at his eyes and his little lock of hair and his stubble, I can’t even.
26:17 I can’t. His eyes. Even in the shade you can see they’re so pretty <3
26:36 So much Rich content. I’m so happy.
26:59 Lord. I love Rich. But Matthew is a freaking fox.
27:10 *happy sigh*
27:20 Rich’s hair is so blonde here
27:28 Rich stop throwing things at people!
27:37 Blithe is still a wee bit batshit, but he’s still the only voice of reason in this little party, which is concerning.
28:19 LMAO LUZ “Oh Jesus Christ, Frank, I don’t know, until they tell us to stop.” He’s always such a mood.
28:38 Hoob looks like he needs a bath.
29:02 Move, babies, move
29:38 That day-night transition tho
29:52 Hey Johnny
30:02 Mood
30:07 Harry. Stop. Cute.
30:30 Johnny, I’m not sure I appreciate your little “You can count on ME sir” as if Harry can’t count on Blithe! Don’t be rude.
30:33 Harry! Fucking fall on him why don’t you!
31:06 Tell that to Ross
31:34 Dad’s here
32:37 Oh Harry
32:38 “War is hell” You little shit! Iconic
33:08 Oh God
33:21 Roe <3 He got there quick! I feel like he doesn’t sleep, that he just hangs around in the back waiting to run in and save people <3
33:27 Oh, baby ☹
33:32 Blithe, it’s OK. He looks so scared!
33:55 Johnny, I have several things to say to you. Number 1, how dare you look so hot in this lighting. Number 2, don’t be so freaking lazy! Number 3, leave poor Blithe alone! He is having a Difficult Time. God Johnny is so unimpressed with him tho.
34:35 I would be more scared to run into Speirs, rather than the enemy. He is more terrifying tbh.
34:46 So. Intimidating.
34:54 Nervous? Yes, case in point.
35:01 Oh Christ here we go. Welcome to the Speirs is batshit and murder-hungry show.
35:27 Lol at Johnny suddenly waking up cos he heard gossip
35:40 Goodnight Johnny ‘Unimpressed’ Martin ILY
36:06 Don’t kill him, please
36:33 GDI Speirs
36:53 Literally no one else wants to be like that, Speirs, just you.
37:58 God
38:33 I need to see Rich. I feel like he was back in that field with Malark but I couldn’t make him out properly and I am now Upset.
38:52 Dick is so boss.
39:18 Oh, baby, oh dear
39:42 Ugh, oh no
40:02 Noooo don’t abandon Easy
40:22 Dad’s here, it’s OK
40:57 Dick get down from up there, you’ll get hit
42:08 Lol at Harry
43:18 RICH
43:48 Nix just chillin with his binoculars on his hill the whole time
44:20 Naw Rich just got back with the ammo and now the party is over
45:05 Oh
45:29 I got chills, the way he just disappears
48:11 So touching
48:46 Harry’s not happy
48:57 lol they’re all like nope, don’t make eye contact
48:58 Aw Blithe levelled up, plus 1 courage
49:00 No, not my angel son, you leave him back where it’s safe Harry
49:28 Aw, Harry’s smile <3
49:59 Nix don’t be so crass
51:00 ROE <3
51:28 Aw Harry, it’s not your fault
51:52 I love this. Harry and Dick in the shade, the boys all chillin in the sun. It feels peaceful and like they’re getting some rest, but like it’s not comfortable. Both legit because they’re lying about on rocks and rubble, and like the general mood and tension. It’s not safe yet, and the environment reflects that and this show, I can’t with this fucking masterpiece of a show sometimes I swear
52:25 “That’s why I came to France. To please General Taylor.” Another zinger from Harry! Give me one line of his that is not iconic and I will give you my firstborn
53:34 Oh Blithe <3
53:56 Aw Malark <3
54:15 Dorks
54:53 RICH
55:14 Lol at Malark stealing Rich’s cigarette
55:19 Oh Lord, the way Dick’s face falls. God, that look. Also do you two husbands need to be that close? No, but please continue.
55:27 Babe <3
55:37 Aw the Dad club assembling is never good. Fun’s over.
55:44 Laughing Rich is all I need in this world
56:00 Bill stop groping him, that’s Roe’s job
56:04 Rich <3
56:13 Aw Babe has a new friend
56:16 Rich in the background <3
56:28 Oh Lip
56:31 That’s sweet of you Smokey
56:49 Lip <3
57:02 RICH’S FACE OMG
57:25 Poor Lip, having to do this.
57:29 RICH
57:36 OMG it’s an actual woman
57:48 Good on you Malark
58:07 Cute
58:17 So sweet
58:32 Oh God, this scene. It’s actually a little surprising she’s not figuring it out on her own
58:37 Oh, his face
58:57 Scott does such a beautiful job in this scene, portraying the emotion without much dialogue, not quite meeting her eyes when he should because he’s trying to hide his shock and sadness
59:40 Oh Blithe.
In conclusion I am happy and sad. It’s a very confusing time.

umm okay i was waiting for you to finish band of brothers before asking...what's your opinion on everyone now? have your favourites changed? or who even are your favourites?
oof good question 😅 I've literally just finished watching it so this is gonna be half-nonsense whilst my brain catches up with itself 💜
People I already loved and still do now (if not even more than before):
Babe Heffron my dumb ginger philly son I do now and forever will love him most
Joe Toye is pretty much on par with babe let's be honest and yes I fucking sobbed like a baby in part 7
Bill Guarnere he's an idiot and I love him for it (I also feel like, as the easy man I'm supposedly most like, I must show him respect)
Ronald Speirs is a legend and a secret softie with the most precious of smiles to ever exists
George Luz will forever own my heart, I relate to him on a spiritual level
Gene Roe is adorable and badass and deserves love and respect at all times
People I was meh with but now would sell my soul to protect:
LEWIS NIXON MY BABY BOY (it's safe to say him, babe and toye are my top 3 favourites now)
Dick Winters what a badass leader and an even better friend omg I swear-
Harry fucking Welsh (he sure did come outta nowhere huh?)
Carwood Lipton my babyyyy (don't kill me ron pls) he's cute with his little scar and thicc thighs and gods that smile?! also laughing in the middle of bastogne same dude same)
Donald Malarkey my absolute darling boy he deserves so much more love wtf he's perfect (although I still see Seabass and Steve Smith but it's whatevs)
Frank Perconte (he's short and brushes his teeth a lot like he's basically me)
Ralph Spina I barely even knew the guy before watching it but gods he's so precious I love him
People I didn't really like but now adore:
David Webster (he's adorable and cute and I love him)
Joe Liebgott I'm sorry I judged him too soon but all I saw before was him starting fights and pissing people off y'know like there was no appreciation for his softer side?! if y'all had shown me that first then I would've adopted him straight away
Buck Compton (and yes this is 100% because I look at his face and see Quarles okay and that judgement is on me)
No there is nobody I don't absolutely love.

15, 16, 17, 19, and 20 with, you guessed it, ryzshard for the oc asks please bean! (Also father winters has me DYING I love it) 🌻🌻
ANGE OMG HELLO AND THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!!! and YEP LOL i figured!!! he is a smol chaotic bean and i’m here for it.
and i just told linda this but i live for the lil nickname bean 🥺💛
AND AHAHAHA STOPPP I HAD TO - i believe i have called winters father a few times as well as speirs LMAO IT GETS ME EVERYTIME i’m glad u appreciate it LOL
Ryzshard Filipski - Landslide (Band of Brothers)
15: Your OC is given the chance to go back in time. Where do they go and what do they do?
This boy, I swear, he’d flip the time switch “just for funsies” and end up in the time of the Roman Empire -> he LOVES Roman history :) He’d march on up, cocky confidence and all to someone like Mark Antony or Julius Caesar and weasel his way into the comedic side kick of either of their lives, making them laugh or pissing them off in the process. It’d honestly be HILARIOUS to see him try to make either of them budge with a laugh -> and he wouldn’t ride a horse in battle, most definitely something like a donkey LOL
16: If your OC could have any superpower, which would it be and why?
So I actually answered Krysta’s ask about this!
But, I will gladly do it again! Ryzshard, as a child, managed to get his hands on some American Superhero comic strips (you know him stealing and all) and Flash Gordon was his favorite!
Superpowers include agility, intellect, weaponry and one of his favorites weapon master. It sounds cool to him. LOL
And...did I mention Flash Gordon was a Resistance Fighter?? 🤔 Something the smol bean takes after!
17: How does your OC do during the zombie apocalypse?
And I answered this for Krysta tool but will gladly answer again! <3
HES ALL GOOD AND VIBIN’
Literally calls the zombies “bro” or “dude” and calls it that the entire thing is all part of the experience.
As long as he’s got a gun in one hand, he’s all good.
19: Your OC’s life is a musical. What’s the title of their big show-stopping song?
Trying to Save the World When You’re a Dumbass and Annoying AF
20: Post a picture or gif that describes your OC.
How about a meme + a Ryzshard gif hm? :)

What's your first thoughts when you hear every bob character name? What are your feelings towards them?
okay, let’s give this a try.
Richard Winters
actual team dad
lowkey i love richard winters so much?? mostly because he was just this KID. he was a guy, still in college. he wasn’t particularly special or talented, he wasn’t wealthy but wasn’t poor, he wasn’t all that driven… he wasn’t even a leader in school. he was just this generic guy who happened to be a good dude with some good principles, and then the war happened.
that’s when dick really grew up. he came into his own, became the man he was meant to be. he grew into himself as a leader and figured out who he was. 
and it turns out, he’s a really great guy.
he’s the sort of person not built for war or violence. he just does his duty. that’s what he’s good at, and he still goes above and beyond for the people he’s leading. that’s what makes dick winters stand out more than anything else.
he’s such a noble guy, and so humble. he deserves all the credit he gets.
Lewis Nixon
the thing about nix is that he has a lot of issues?? and i really feel like the fandom both pays too much and too little attention to them. or pays attention to them in the wrong ways. i dont know.
nix is an alcoholic. this is a disease, and he struggles as it worsens throughout the series. he also probably suffers from PTSD, or at least some pretty heavily guilt, and i think he lays a lot of that blame on himself.
overall, nix is a very interesting, very HUMAN character. he was portrayed in the show masterfully – i think the real lewis nixon would have been proud to see himself on screen.
i love nix at his best – witty, charming, and happy. at his worst (see: why we fight) he’s a lot harder to love, but through it all he’s very human and very vulnerable. i think he’s an exceptional and interesting character.
Carwood Lipton
okay, first, why is his name what it is (is that?? a thing??? what the hell is a carwood??? like, what does it mean??)
besides that, carwood lipton is a fantastic dude
lip bears the responsibility for a lot of other guys. that’s just the sort of guy he is. he’s willing to lead, but mostly he protects others, and is willing to put his own wellbeing on the line to do it.
lip is a team player, but he’s also very shrewd. he knows how to talk to people. he’s able to tell them what they want to hear, and make himself seem nonoffensive while trying to get his men what they need. the way he handles himself in the ardennes with dike is so careful, but he advocates for them masterfully.
lip is also not afraid to speak up if he feels he can make a difference. he’s not afraid of a lot of things, but he’s far from a reckless man.
he’s also??? such a great guy?? so levelheaded and good.
i really appreciate carwood lipton, okay
Ronald Speirs
my first thought about speris was, “hmm, his name sounds stabby.” lo and behold, he was.
i’m so interested in speirs. i think he’s an incredibly complex character and it’s hard not to be fascinated by him. he just kind of draws you in.
he’s... unnerving. a little scary. weird, intelligent, startling, clever, and so, so fascinating. no matter what, he’s an enigma, and i feel like no one can ever truly figure out ron speirs.
that said, he’s a hell of a fun puzzle to try to solve.
Harry Welsh
i fell in love with harry the moment he did his little “thunder” thing, and flashed that smirk which send me head-over-heels. 
there’s just… something about him, okay?? he’s a shamelss romantic, he’s a tease, he’s so dedicated and sharp and funny, and i… i love him.
he’s a crazy bastard, has got the luck of the irish, and is almost as short as me. harry is my guy and i’d kill someone for him.
Eugene Roe
i just knew roe as the medic at first, and i read a lot about him before i actually started to know him. i knew he was cajun, was sort of serious, and that bastogne was his episode
i actually find gene really interesting because of everything he keeps locked away. he’s the definition of “still waters run deep” and i find his internal struggle between saving lives and having blood on his hands fascinating.
he’s also so humble, and clever, and will put himself on the line for the men it’s his job to save. he takes his job seriously, and is the best medic easy could ask for.
he’s so... compassionate?? so great?? he’s fantastic.
Babe Heffron
i’ll admit when i first heard babe’s name i laughed out loud, because??? “babe?? his name’s BABE?? tell me that’s not his actual name”
it wasn’t. i was a little relieved.
aside from that
he’s so great!! so great! 
he’s such a good guy, and so genuine. there’s nothing artificial about him. he’s true to himself and to others, and maybe that’s what i love most about him. 
he’s very upfront, very loyal to his own feelings and motivations – esp to his people. babe is fiercely devoted to his people.
he’s also such a nice guy. he actively goes around trying to encourage other people, to make them feel better, and he’s not afraid to show his own emotions. he’s tough, he’s firey, but he’s also very genuine and that’s why i think he’s such a cool guy. (also he’s a dork, so that helps.)
Bill Guarnere
i actually couldn’t recognize him by face for a while. all i pinned him with was “squeaky voice guy” because he does have… a very distinctive… voice. (babe is just as bad, though. those south philly boys, i swear…)
aside from my first impression, i really didn’t like bill for most of the first episode. the whole “he’s a jew” incident left a horrible taste in my mouth, and i thought, “well, this guy’s gonna be a jerk.”
bill surprised me, however. he could be a jerk, but he was also a great guy when it counted. he’s a good man in a storm, and it was around episode four that he really started to grow on me.
bill is loyal to a fault, he’s fearless, he cares so much. he’s a tough guy, but when something matters to him, he doesn’t give up on it.
if it wasn’t for bill, easy company’s camaraderie would not have lasted over the years. bill did so much, he was such an amazing guy, and i really appreciate him a lot.
bill guarnere rocks, okay
Frank Perconte
he’s so small, petty, and bitchy. he’s literally me.
i have such a soft spot for frank, okay? i don’t talk about him much but i’d go ride-or-die for him, because i RELATE, okay? i’m that friend who’s always worried about how i look, who complains a little too much, but who’s always there when his friends need him. sometimes i overreact, sometimes i’m stubborn, but i’ll do my best for my friends
(i’m like a really weird hybrid of web and perco. i don’t know.)
George Luz
i actually barely noticed him until i started scrolling through tumblr after watching the first episode. the first BoB blog i found was devoted to george, so i got a crash course in how great he was. i developed a healthy appreciation for my boy.
now, what would i do without george luz?
george is the heart of easy co, and keeps up their spirit in the darkest times. he’s supportive, he’s witty, and he boosted the morale of the entire company. without them, things would have been a whole lot darker.
he’s also not afraid to get sassy, which i appreciate. he tells it like it is.
he would shoot a chicken for biting him. while i do not condone this, i respect him for it. i, too, might try to kill someone if they bit me.
how much do i love george luz??? a hell of a lot.
Skip Muck
long before i knew his name i recognized him as the guy from supernatural, so i was like, “holy shit, it’s THAT guy!” then i read his name was skip, thought about the character, and was like, “yeah, sounds about right.”
i love skip, okay? he’s just the best guy. he’s the best friend, the most caring parson -- he’s heroic, he’s charming, he’s optimistic and funny.
skip never lost his faith in a brighter future. he loved his friends and family more than anything else. he died trying to bring his friend to safety, and if there’s an honorable sort of death, that would be it.
i would do anything for skip muck. he deserves so much better.
Donald Malarkey
my first thought when the show introduced us to malarkey was, “well, someone got the short end of the naming stick.”
i don’t feel as strongly about malarkey as i do about the other characters. i like him, to be sure, i just... he never stood out to me as much.
he’s a really great guy, and the emotional journey he goes on is shocking. he starts the war as one man, and ends it as another. seeing all that malarkey loses is terrible.
Joe Toye
it actually took me a long time to recognize joe in the show! i remembered him as “puppy dog eyes” for a little while tbh
i thought of joe as a tough, gruff, sort of stoic guy from the beginning, and that’s not too far off. he is tough as nails, that’s for sure.
but i find joe most interesting because of the softer side that he isn’t as willing to show. joe is a guy who’s deeply affected by things. his loyalty to his comrades is his strongest trait, but he also has an intense emotional side.
joe struggled with self-esteem issues. he cared for others with all his might. he took the events of the war hard enough that it took him years to recover.
joe’s emotional side is the most fascinating thing about him, in my opinion, and i love him for it.
Joseph Liebgott
the first ever clip i watched from BoB was the concentration camp scene, ft. winters shouting liebgott’s name very loudly, multiple times. “well,” i thought, “that sounds like a german name. this guy must speak german.” then i saw liebgott’s face, and it all spiralled from there.
joe liebgott is a complicated guy, okay
he’s so angry, and has every right to be. liebgott’s rage manifests itself in the most gut-wrenching, heartbreaking ways. the scene in the concentration camp is the most powerful of the series, and ross plays it so well. liebgott’s range of emotions in that scene is awful to watch.
aside from that, liebgott is an angry guy in general. he’s a little cruel, and he takes his emotions out on others. he’s by no means perfect, but he’s also sarcastic and charming and kind of a brat.
i think you learn the most about liebgott by seeing his interactions with others -- with winters, with webster, even when he offers to blow up sobel. he’s a conflicted, complex character who stands out because of the shades of grey in his own morality.
(he’s also gorgeous. superficial, but true.)
David Webster
the show (and ambrose’s book) were really kind to webster, okay? he wasn’t actually as important as he’s portrayed in the show -- he didn’t play a role in the patrol, he wasn’t on the drive with liebgott -- but i am very fond of the character we were given.
webster is a bit too relatable, okay??
he’s a writer, a little socially awkward, with obsessive interests. he likes thinking he’s smarter than he really is. he’s lazy, but he tells himself he’s following his own morals. he’s also a gifted writer with a strong set of principles and beliefs, who isn’t afraid to speak his mind.
i empathize with webster a bit too much, to be honest.

My day is going well, how is yours? Lip: my sweet darling boy and I love 80s music and I love the crossover of heart of glass w/speirs. I like psycho killer bc i fell like lip’s 2d version of himself is boiled down to sweet mom friend who is mostly positive, and having songs like psycho killer do bring out the fact that this is the dude who also doesn’t really take shit. He’s like the flip side of Speirs, more light with a hint of dark. He’s New Order and Speirs is Joy Division, basically. (1/?)
I’m so glad to hear that aaah! And mine is going pretty well thanks!! And also!
Let’s get down to business B)
“Running Up That Hill” REALLY fits his vibe, I can’t explain it, but it just sums him up so nicely. For him, the vibes from the instrumental bits seem to gel a bit more than lyrics, and again, that’s all about subtleties, and Lip is just a subtle guy that it’s p. appropriate. Bc I had it on shuffle, it ended with Tears for Fears’ version of “Head Over Heels” and it was so nice as the ending, like it started w/ Psycho Killer which is more staccato and then ended with something nice & smooth (2/?)
Lew: I think having Für Elise w/ the toy piano beginning is cute bc it goes w/ Lew not really taking himself too seriously. Fleetwood Mac is suuuccch a Lew band, it’s that perfect mix of Dad Rock™ and soft soothing music. Equally, “Long Cool Woman” and “Fortunate Son” are also such Dad Rock™ songs and they totally play in his head when he does something he thinks is cool, but is actually pretty dorky. I also am not an Elvis fan, but it does fit Lew pretty well. (3/?)
It’s a song that he would serenade to the person he loves, a lá Lloyd Dobbler. Having classical music makes me think of that text post about how he’s undercover, not a snob really, but he pronounces everything in french correctly and he’s familiar enough with classical music to differentiate between Beethoven and Mozart by ear pretty quickly. It’s his secret side, almost, only it’s not a secret because Lew isn’t really one for secrets. (4/?)
And then the version of “Bohemian Rhapsody” ties the two together. (5/5) So that’s Lip & Lew, and I’m going to do Dick next. My day is going well; I’m going shopping with my mom soon and I’m excited! How is your day going?
THANK YOU a whole bunch for this i really!! appreciate it an awful lot!
The crossover thing was an important thing to me, both with Heart of Glass and Running Up That Hill, and so was the contrast between them in terms of the vibes as you said in your ask! The New Order/Joy Division is a super interesting point too actually, I hadn’t thought of it that way before but it’s so fitting for them. 
In terms of Running Up That Hill; Lip got the Kate Bush original because- because I feel like it’s still haunting, but there’s more of a… I know lyrically it doesn’t mean this, but my first interpretation of the song as a bairn was “I want to swap positions to save you”, which I think is really a very Lip kind of outlook on life?? Speirs got the darker Placebo version because while there’s still the saving element, there’s also the “I wish you could understand me” as well as the kind of- it sounds more like a deal with the devil, than a deal with god, if that makes sense??
AND ALSO that shuffle thing is cool and does sound like a nice way to end it! i love when playlists do that on shuffle. i wish i could say i make the lists themselves with an order in mind, but alas i cant take credit for any flukes of “woah that song flowed super well into the next” incidents because there was very little pre-planning in that respect.
LEW is such a Dad Rock™ kinda guy and i am SO glad you agree omg!! I hadnt actually thought about the Fur Elise being not too serious actually so that’s a really nice interpretation to hear!
The classical music was something I actually wasn’t going to include at first, until my bf gave me a loving lecture on how i “couldnt do nix without classical!! he fucking LOVES beethoven!!!!” but i think! you’re right in a sense that he is cultured though keeps it kind of to himself sometimes?? maybe
and also! that’s exactly what i was hoping to do with the Bohemian Rhapsody so that means a lot to hear! and also im glad your day is going well and i hope you have fun shopping!! my day is going pretty well too thankyou aah! much love!

11 Facts for Followers
I was tagged by @spoondragon, so shout out to her. I appreciate it my dude.
1. I was just introduced to Band of Brothers this past year but instantly I was hooked. I’m obsessed.
2. My history teacher knows of my obsession with WW2 and likes to let everyone else know. Which isn’t that big of a deal, but I’m real shy like that.
3. My best friend and I both won fish at a fair in our town. Hers died in like three days and mine has been alive for like 2 years now. He doesn’t really have a name because I’m a bad fish owner, I just call him whatever I want. But if you’d like to recommend a name I’d love it.
4. My History teacher also knows I’m pretty into politics (too young to vote though). So whenever a political conversation begins she always looks to me. Btw, Bernie should’ve won.
5. I live in Illinois and there’s some pretty neat places here. Chicago is pretty rad, but I live like 3 hours away. People automatically assume if you’re from Illinois, you’re from Chicago. But most of Illinois is corn fields and other boring stuff.
6. I’m scared of open water, Donald Trump, and spiders.
7. I’m a feminist, I support Black Lives Matter, and still think Bernie should have won.
8. If I could travel anywhere, I’d want to tour Europe and see all different battle sights and tourist attractions. Europe is just rad, ya know.
9. I don’t really have a favorite character in Band of Brothers, but Liebgott, Luz, Speirs, and Winters are up there. But I love them all. Except for Cobb, what’s his deal?
10. When I saw I was actually tagged for something I flipped out. I tried FaceTiming two different people to tell them about it, but they didn’t answer. I was so excited.
11. I got a world map for Christmas, yes that’s what I asked for, and spent about three days just staring at it. I love it.
I tag @warrenmucks, @chocolatpourvous,
@hangtougheasy, @david-kenyon-webster @battered-bastards-blog, @shut-up-cobb, @thebrotherhoodelites, @webgottrash, @buckcompton, @nixonn, @floydstalbert
